The Memphis Grizzlies select Duke freshman Cameron Boozer with the No. 3 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, according to multiple reports. Several outlets describe Boozer as the top productive player in his age group and note his standout freshman season at Duke. Yahoo Sports also identifies him as the son of former NBA player Carlos Boozer.
After the selection, coverage highlights Boozer’s role expectations with Memphis as a centerpiece figure. In preparation for his NBA debut, Yahoo Sports reports that Boozer plays in the Grizzlies’ NBA Summer League, scoring 15 points in his first game. The same report notes that Carlos Boozer watches from courtside during the Summer League appearance.
Across outlets, the central points remain consistent: Boozer is drafted third overall by Memphis, begins his NBA tenure with the organization, and is immediately spotlighted for his production and expected impact.
